    I didn’t see that one until you pointed it out. You’re right. That’s just as concerning as the one in Atlanta.

    There’s no reason to throw a partisan wedge. I’m just interested in learning the truth, and there’s a lot of misinformation out there. Personally, I think police should focus on deescalation training and maximizing the use of less-lethal weapons over playing in shooting galleries.

      well i want the abolition of prisons and police and private property, and my opposition to these facilities has nothing to do with the fact that democrats are supporting them. my opposition to democrats comes, at least partially, from that fact.

        That’s fair. We can agree to disagree.

        I thought you were implying my lack of recognition of the cop city in PA was related to being a Democrat. It was honest unawareness, and I appreciate you mentioning it.
